Isaiah 42:10;  Revelation 5:9
(Song)

A door, a knock, an answer
Is how it all began
Shall I fall and be like Eve
Or like the Son of Man
A new found dedication,
A life no more for me,
With humble heart and zealous love
In Gods service I will always be

Love the Father and his Son
For they are just and true
And join the flocks of God in praise
In the family that Jehovah drew

A little pool of water
Into which I will step
And there be plunged into a death
I never will regret
This public declaration,
Through baptism does speak
Of my earnest love for God
And the need to reach all of the meek

Serve Jehovah, do his work
Complete all Jah says do
And join the Sons of God in praise:
"Abba, Father we love you... love you."

March/April 2002

When death and sorrow are no more,
When war's a thing unknown...
When Satan is at last destroyed,
When we stand before God's throne...
We'll
live perfection for all time
And never fall astray
For in Gods love his people
keep
And all his laws obey

So rest assured, please be at ease
And know God's just and true
The hope of life is ever strong
It exists for those God drew
Yet not for them alone-- the Bible says
But for
all within the tombs
There's a promise for folks good and bad
Thus the resurrection looms

We will soon be people all taught by God
In our Promised Lands at last
Where not a single soul is ever sick
When all sorrow is long past
The dead will raise, the lame will walk
Those once silenced will sing praise
And the ones we mourn may be in our arms
For an eternity of days.

Psalm 37:29;  Isaiah 35:5, 6;  Matthew 5:5;  John 5:28, 29;  Revelation 21:3, 4

February 2002
(Song)

True friends are precious
gifts from God
Of this I know
And through their tenderness
and love
God's fruitage show

[Chorus]

Through work and play
and every day
We make our stand
To serve Jehovah
with our lives
And hand in hand

Yet more than friends
Yes, Christian kin
We've now become
In unity with God above
we're now as one

[Chorus]

For seeds were sown,
as gifts that root
near waters deep
Firm in the Truth
and harvest work
to Jah we keep

[Chorus]

January 2002
(Song)

Into the rocker of retirement
I cannot now recline
I must submit to each requirement
For through the marriage feast I dine

Into your work I now must live
Please help me carry out your ways
All things to you I yearn to give
And to praise you all my days

And even through I wear your seal
Upon my heart I sadly feel...

[As if]
My husband lives across the world
His embrace I do not know
Into myself I'm frequent' curled
As my sorrows, daily, grow...

[I cry]
With you, my God
I yearn to stay
And to your ways abide
My Lord, my God
When is the day
You'll call me to your side

You're my God, and my best friend
Holy God, you're the Shadows end
Sovereign Lord and Creator of all
Lord Most High, best friend...
Lord Most High

July 04, 2001
Emotions are soaring as never before
Shall I live by the Word or die by the sword
Shall I muster up courage and quicken my pace
Or falter and crumble and thus lose the race?

My spirit is crying for strength which I lack
My body and soul under Satan's attack!
Refining and learning to live Jah's wise ways
Yet missing the mark and counting my days.

There's so much to learn, yet so little time
Will I snap under pressure, commit the Great Crime?
Spiritual suicide lurks lying in wait
Abba, Father, remove from my sight Satan's bait...
